Two East Indian students

The Assistants to President Dance have been teaching two young men who are students here, from India. One is 22 and single and the other is 35 and married with a son. They are friends and have been here studying so they can improve their employment in India.

They are "golden" contacts and both will be baptized in two weeks. They were Christians before and had heard about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They said that more and more people in India are becoming Christians. The one who is married said his wife is Christian and will want to be baptized, as well. She is in India while he attends school.

There are now two missions of the Church in India but their home is an 8 hour drive from the nearest Branch of the Church.
